My build (game changer)

[Pat Thaiwongse]

Hey all I have posted some video of my bike on youtube but i have been requested to post here.
Ok this is my first build. I had Slim at Slim fabractions in Redlands Ca help me with the frame as well as many other parts on my bike. I want something very differnt. I went with a Schwinn style frame with a gas tank mold into the frame. The paint is done in Sharpie marker all by hand. The artist is Yoshi from the Foregin family clothing company. The front wheel is a 23" front wheel. The fork on my bike are of a 60's trike. I had slim cut them down 4" to fit better. rear is a standard 18" drum brake. The foot controls are one off also by Slim. I have entered this bike in David Mann chopper fest in Ventura. got great response also a Born free 3 great response there too. In all it took me 4 months to build. I have more pic. and if you have questions feel free to ask. I hope you all like it.

Ill be honest. Not really my thing "BUT" It is, with out a doubt, the most creative thing I have seen pertaining to an XS 650 in a very very very long time. Great job, Its totally awsome. Not for me... but totally awsome non the less.

Thanks Fankie. I know its not everbodies cup of tea. But still glad you like it.

Great bike! Love the paint design. Did you have to use some kind of fuel pump to get gas to the carbs.

 

[XSJoel]

Unique for sure, good job on doing you.

 

[Pat Thaiwongse]

Yes there is a micro electric fuel pump on the lower part of the frame hidden under the motor.

It is cool. A real Jesse Rooke style to it.

Your bike is beyond cool! I love the frame decor! Seems to me I have seen some pics of it somewhere before... can't recall where... might have been YT. Beautifully done!

I think there's a pic in the recent "The Horse", too.

 

[Pat Thaiwongse]

Oops I think it was"The horse" not street chopper.

Does the fuel pump take fuel from the tank, below the engine (to the pump) and then back up to the carbs?

Yes the petcock is on the lower part Of the tank the fuel is pumped up to the carbs.

 

[ProSimex]

nifty...

 

[ReycleBill]

Very nice. I really like the tank and the penmanship.

 

[uknowme2goog]

I like it...very different...i was looking at your pictures for a while..how much gas can the tank hold?

 

[Pat Thaiwongse]

About two gallons of gas. The top tube of the frame holds a bit.

Love it. Very sick bike.
